[question]how to make a race-specific version of a footman not have the default footmans armour?

currently my race mod of the nordlingmod changes things in such a way that its footman are like the normal footman, but wear different armour. problem is: my armour seems to layer over the existing blue footman armour for some reason. how would one go about doing this propperly?

   "equipment": {
      "torso": "file(footman_outfit)",
      "mainhand": "stonehearth:weapons:wooden_sword"
   },

The above is the original footman equip, can’t you just add something different to the torso?

well i could give it a direct link so it doesnt get confused and adds both. might work! lemme try.

In your file all you need is this:

   "equipment": {
      "torso": "file(your_outfit)"
   },
